Getting started with C programming.
- Reading - start reading through one of the following (pick one that seems an easy read for you) before you start working on the programming problems.
- The C Book - a bit older, suitable for people with just a bit of programming experience
- C Programming Tutorial - suitable for people with no previous programming experience
- Fresh2Refresh Tutorial - more of a summary, easy to find particular topics
- cplusplus.com - contains references for functions, often one of the first search results on google searches for C
- MIT C course - with lecture notes and assignments
- Cornell C course - with lecture notes and assignments
- Work on solving these problems - https://www.hackerrank.com/domains/c. Start with the first problem and work your way up from there.
- Get C installed on your computer - download and install some C compiler/IDE. We use gcc (see https://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html). You could use any compiler/IDE that is C (not C++). Eclipse (see https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/) would be fine. So would MS Visual Studio (see https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/). Or Clang (see http://releases.llvm.org/download.html). Or some in-browser C site, like https://repl.it/languages/c or https://www.onlinegdb.com/online_c_compiler.
- If you are a current or incoming ISU student, or an ISU alumni, sign up for the ISU CS Mattermost at https://judy.indstate.edu. Note that you need to use your @sycamores.indstate.edu email address to sign up. Look for the C Programming Channel (direct link is https://judy.indstate.edu/isu-cs/channels/c-programming). When asking about the hackerrank problems make sure to refer to them using the title hackerrank gives them.
That's it for now. Let's see how far you can get with solving the hackerrank problems! Good luck!
